I'm of the opinion that it's okay to be silent, to not speak if you don't have anything to say.

I am the age that I am and I am trying to do the best with what I got.

I'm partial to a nice cup of vodka. I normally just drink it really simple with a little bit of lemon.

Onscreen, babies and animals are my inspiration. They're so alive and there and not messed up in the head the way I am.

An actress once advised me, 'Make sure you do your own laundry - it will keep you honest.'

The word 'circumnavigate' is quite a beautiful word.

I think that's what I love about my life. There's no maniacal master plan. It's just unfolding before me.

You learn an enormous lot through failure.

I think you need to have a healthy sense of doubt because I think doubt leads to inquiry.

The less one can think about oneself, the more interesting and attractive one becomes.

I think it's always good to take on things that at first seem bigger than you. Then you just try and surmount them.

I don't tell the truth, I tell what ought to be the truth.

I couldn't possibly have played someone with feelings towards a woman unless I had those feelings myself.

Some ideas, like what you're going to do with your life, take time to form.

Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.

I love strange choices. I'm always interested in people who depart from what is expected of them and go into new territory.

If you know you are going to fail, then fail gloriously.

I love employment, and it's never, ever guaranteed. As much as I love doing animated voices, I just love working.

I'm a pretty boring person. I have a dog that I love, and friends that I love, and a family that I love. I'm just trying to spend as much time with them as I can.
